secretary clinton said she was screaming on the phone at libyan officials. there's no voice in the world like that of the president of the united states. and i do believe if he had picked up the phone and called the libyan government these folks could have gotten out of the airport to the annex and the last two guys may very well be alive. if and he did call the libyan officials and they sort of blew him off that would affect whether or not i would give foreign aid in the future to libya. but if he failed to call on behalf of those people under siege, and i think that's a massive failure of leadership by our commander in chief. >> schieffer: have you tried to find out if he did call? >> i've tried-- we know he had a 15-minute briefing by secretary panet and the chairman of the joint chiefs right after the attack happened. it was a preplanned meeting. it just happened that benghazi came up at the meeting. i don't know what the president did that evening. i don't know if he ever called anyone. i know he never talked to the secretary of defense. i know that he
